So, I just get my Camaro back from shop after 2 months of rocker panel reconstruction. I go to get sticker, and fail, due to wipers not working.
When I turn on wipers, they move an inch and blow a fuse.
I have checked all the wiring and even a stronger amp fuse and they all blow.
I also , disconnected the wiring on wiper motor, put new fuse in and turned on wipers, and the fuse did not blow. Would that eliminate the dash switch from the problem?
Any suggestions
Thanks
Barry

 

Sounds like the wiper motor may be locked up, or has an internal short, or the transmission (linkage) is frozen up. Disconnect the linkage from the motor arm and try running it again, also make sure the arms now move freely by hand.
